Artists, where do you get ideas for paintings?
. . .Because I am in a creative slump right now. I have an insane urge to paint or draw or SOMETHING, but there are only so many portraits I can do before I get bored with that. I’ve never been good at coming up with ideas for paintings. Where do you go for inspiration? What do you do?
One of the best ways I know is to set myself up a challenge to paint something I have never done before, to use colors I don’t normally use, or work in a style I don’t normally choose. . . .
Another good way to break loose is to take your easel and paints outdoors and paint plein air!
